Supporting pro-public education candidates that impact student learning and working conditions in our schools. NOTE 1: The vast majority of our members choose to contribute $24 annually to I-PACE through an "Options Guaranteed" contribution. This is collected in the same transaction as dues, but the funds are kept separate and are used only to support pro-public education local school board candidates and pro-public education state candidates. If you do not want wish to contribute to the Options Guaranteed (I-PACE and Local PAC), you need to annually complete an Options Guaranteed Waiver form and will need to return the completed form to your building level Association Representative or to the ETA office (701 John Street, Evansville, IN 47713).
